We'll, I am off to see The Avengers in a few hours and from what I have read, it will not disappoint. It will be great to see the characters interacting with one another, but the one story line I am really looking forward to seeing continued is Captain America's. His film left off on such a cliffhanger moment, I really wanted to see how they handled Cap's transition into modern life. It'll be fun to see the follow through on that.

This pairing doesn't seem that crazy to me. In fact, The Red Skull referred to Raiders of the Lost Arc in Captain America when he mentioned something about "the fuhrer digging for trinkets in the desert" - I loved that moment.

FYI, I just got back from The Avengers movie...believe me, you will NOT be disappointed. Best part:(non-spoiler) although I've seen every movie leading up to it, even if you'd seen one of the character's previous movies, this would seem like a direct sequel, no matter which of the those movies you'd seen. And the plot lines all meshed in brilliantly.

I would have hoped to see a different Harrison Ford character: namely, Han Solo. It would have been perfect in noting that the Avengers movie came out on International Star Wars Appreciation Day (May the Fourth be With You).
